Near the end of World WarII, Okinawa Island became the site of one of the war's bloodiest battles,
when the US forces invaded and occupied the island.
An estimated 200,000 people, including more than 100,000 civilians and 12,500 Americans were killed in the battle.
The devastating effects of the war had a deep impact on the local people.
There are a number of monuments and museums relating to the period throughout Okinawa Island.
The worst battle took place in the south, and that is where some of the larger monuments have been constructed.
Peace Memorial Museum, located in Okinawa Peace Memorial Park,
gives a sobering overview of the lead up to the battle,
the battle itself and the reconstruction of Okinawa.
Cornerstone of Peace
It’s a collection of large stone plates with the names of all fallen soldiers and civilians,
including Koreans, Taiwanese, Americans and Britons.
Himeyuri Monument (Himeyuri no To)
. It commemorates the fate of female high school students, who worked in army field hospitals in caves under horrendous conditions.
Most of them did not survive the war.
Former Navy Underground Headquarters
It consists of several hundred meters of underground corridors and rooms that served as the Japanese navy's headquarters during the war.
A lot of sailors committed suicide in these tunnels, after their situation had grown hopeless towards the end of the battle.
